Gil, 
 
If it's the same pain pattern (same leg, same area) it may be a good sign. Wait for the "fresh injection" pain to settle down. I had the same experience. I went from 6+ pre-injection to 8+ for a week or so post injection. It finally settled down to to 3-4 for 3 months. Unforunately mine has worn off so I'm headed back to the PM next week. 
 
Good luck, 
 
Bob
